ALPHABET ORGANIZING - F - One final result

After getting a good handle on my paper files, I have successfully taken better control of my digital files and photos. I have sorted and purged most of my digital content and backed it up on these two flash drives. I feel confident that if anything were to happen to my paper files and information, I have safely and securely stored all that information digitally.

My FLASH drives are stored in a safe and secure location.

This is an on-going category to keep working on, but in two days of concentrating on it, I feel good.

Remember I said there are no failures and no unrealistic expectations? That is what is making this process fun for me.

If you try this with those guidelines for yourself, I think you will be pleased with the progress you make.

Check back later today and I will post an update on my progress with "G" from yesterday. The Garage!

Alphabet Organizing- L

  There are a few areas of the house that don't necessarily have any other function other than practicality. That would be the Laundry Room. I have been fortunate that the last few houses we have lived in had a separate laundry room. This makes for a nicely defined space, but it can also cause problems if the space becomes a catchall for miscellaneous items that do not "fit" anywhere else. This causes a crowding in an area that is designed for a specific purpose- laundry! When moving into this new home recently, I decided to break any bad habits of overcrowding the area. Since I was starting with a blank slate, I chose carefully what would go into this space. Even though I stated that this area is for practicality, I still went for an aesthetically pleasing look. As you will see in the photos, I corral many items in baskets and see through jars. I also incorporated the height I have in 10 foot ceilings so I can take advantage of storage space available. ...

The Journey

Image
  The Journey Begins Today begins my 6 month journey to launching my new business.  I have been preparing for this one day at a time for many years and now is the time.  All the parts and pieces of my life are coming together to allow me to realize my dream. My dream of fulfilling my creative side and the opportunity to invest into the future are just waiting for me to grab hold of.  Like doing a puzzle, all the pieces have been laid out on the table. The corners are done, the edges are complete, the borders and boundaries are set. Some of the scene is visible to the eye, and some is still just in the minds eye until the pieces are laid. My plan is to share each week the progress I am making. This will help keep me on track, accountable to my goal, and enable me to see progress as I put it in writing.  I am using those that have gone before me as a guide. I am searching out wisdom to avoid pitfalls and encouragement for the journey. ...

Back on Track with "Alphabet Organizing"

Image
So it seems that although I was headed in the right direction to organizing using the alphabet, I did not count on the momentum I was building up as I concentrated on one letter, one project per day. Perhaps I was taking on too much too quick. Much like running down hill, you start off controlled and putting one foot in front of the other in an orderly fashion. Then all of a sudden, you take a leap and you are airborne and on the verge of a tumble rather than a run. In September, I recall that I stopped at the letter "I" to step back and get an "I"impression of what I accomplished and what needed to be done. This caused a major "INTERRUPTION" as I looked around at the projects I wanted to accomplish but at the same time wanted to keep moving forward. So before I took that fateful leap forward that may have resulted in a tumble or roll down the hill, I INTERRUPTED the process and concentrated on cleaning up loose ends.     What have I bee...
